Growth Path of the Internet

The Internet: Phenomenal growth

21

http://newsroom.cisco.com/release/1197391/, http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats3.htm#asia, http://www.internetworldstats.com/emarketing.html

World 16 million users in 1995 2.8 billion users in 2013

Asia: 115 million users in 2000 1 billion users in 2013

And the Internet is still growing

22


3.6 billion Internet users by 2017 in the

world

Over 47% of the world’s projected population (7.6 billion)

And the Internet is still growing

23


3.6 billion Internet users by 2017 in the

world

Over 47% of the world’s projected population (7.6 billion)

1.33 billion Internet users in Asia by 2015, +30 % from 2013

The next wave of Internet growth

•  Mobile networks with always on mobile devices –  IP-based services –  Much larger impact on the fundamental nature of the Internet

•  Research projects 3G and 4G market share to increase to 53% by 2017

24

IPv6 in mobile networks

•  3G+ and 4G (LTE, TD-LTE): Services on voice, messaging and data are converging on IP-based services

•  Rapidly increasing global 3G+ and 4G deployment –  Some mobile network operators have already deployed IPv6

25

Verizon T-Mobile USA

Case Study: T-Mobile USA

•  Reassessment on IP addressing strategy in late 2009 –  Lack of IPv4 address space + rapid growth in “always-on” devices –  IPv4 does not fit the business need –  IPv6 deployment in 3GPP is easy

•  Feasibility study and impact assessment: 9 months

•  Started an IPv6 user trial in 2010 on 2G/3G/HSPA network –  Settled with IPv6-only + 464XLAT transition technology to make

everything work with IPv6-only

26

http://conference.apnic.net/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/58870/tmo-ipv6-feb-2013_1361827441.pdf


•  T-Mobile USA reconsidered their IP addressing strategy and chose a scalable option

27

Feasibility and impact assessment: 9 months

IPv6 user trial in 2010

Reassessment on IP addressing strategy in 2009

Deployed IPv6-only + 464XLAT, Oct 2013


•  Did not spend any CAPEX to deploy IPv6

•  Introduction feature to handsets –  A slow and careful process

•  Android 4.3 introduced support for 464XLAT in Oct 2013

•  Launched 5 Android phones with 464XLAT as the default in Oct 2013 –  All Android 4.3+ smartphones will be 464XLAT in the future at T-

Mobile USA –  End users will be assigned with IPv6 as a default –  No IPv4 addresses will be assigned

•  Result of the above operation –  3.6 million unique IPv6 subscribers are active on the network after

five months (as of Feb 2014) –  Over 50% of IPv6 user traffic is end-to-end IPv6 –  No complicated IPv6 to IPv4 or IPv4 to IPv6 translation needed –  This saves CAPEX and OPEX and makes the network simpler

Case study: Telstra Australia

•  Telstra is committed to introducing IPv6 into its mobile network: 464XLAT

Conclusions

Conclusions

•  IPv6 deployment is increasing steadily –  But varies among regions, economies, and individual ASNs –  Not happening simultaneously –  Some economies and ASNs have been very active in terms of IPv6

deployment •  Particularly some mobile network operators and cable TV operators •  Once they enable IPv6 in their network and handsets, their end user

readiness grows VERY rapidly

35

Conclusions: A recipe for successful IPv6 deployment
